LACMA’s David Geffen Galleries building 90 percent complete
DAVID GEFFEN GALLERIES building at the County Art Museum, shown in Mid-November, no longer is supported by the scaffolding used in construction. In the background, from left, are Park La Brea towers, One Museum Square apartments on Curson Avenue and the SAG-AFTRA Building, originally developed as the western U.S. headquarters of Prudential Insurance Company. The glass at ground level behind the grand staircase is the south wall of the new museum store. Photo by Bill Devlin
GROUND LEVEL of the west end of the new David Geffen Galleries building features a restaurant (the windows at left) and a museum store (the windows behind the grand staircase).
SEE-THROUGH MUSEUM at ground level opens up views to and from Hancock Park. The ground-level glass at left will be the restaurant, and a museum store will be in the glassed-in space behind the staircase at right.
Construction scaffolding used to support the forms for pouring LACMA’s new concrete museum building have been removed. Ninety percent of construction has been completed, and an opening is planned for April 2026. Learn more at: buildinglacma.org.
